Wind Blows Deeply » music http://jenjie.mennogirl.com Working in the fields, I would feel and hear a poem coming at me. It was like a thunderous train of air and it would come barrelling down over the landscape. - Ruth Stone Mon, 02 Jan 2012 04:49:35 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 Banjo, strings and vocals http://jenjie.mennogirl.com/2011/02/banjo-strings-and-vocals/ http://jenjie.mennogirl.com/2011/02/banjo-strings-and-vocals/#comments Fri, 11 Feb 2011 04:15:33 +0000 jenn http://jenjie.mennogirl.com/?p=1491 Crooked Still – “Half of What We Know”

Still highlighting new artists I come across in my journey of discovery. If you have an artist you think I should know about, leave me a comment.

In the meantime, here are a few that you might enjoy:
Derek Webb: the edgy and controversial “Mockingbird” and “Stockholm Syndrome”
Emm Gryner’s new album “Gem and I”
And “Echoes” by Jenn Grant

It’s hot. It’s humid.

Nights around bonfires. Ice cream melting faster than it can be eaten. Mosquitoes eating faster than can be swatted. Road trips with friends and to friends and to home. That infamous road trip requires a soundtrack.

First off, a new remake of an old UK classic by Slade:
C*m on feel the noise (Lucky Uke)

Next is Home from Parlor Hawk’s new album Hoarse and Roaring. What a better reason to include it on your mix-tape than this quote:

“Listening to ‘Hoarse and Roaring‘ is like driving alone down a long, open road off into a sunset tinged landscape, leaving plenty of time to contemplate life’s hopes and struggles.” – Chase Larson

Good Old War – their entire new album

Rabbit Song (Boy & Bear)
